In what will be only the second ever meeting between the sides, Fleet boss Daryl McMahon comes up against the club he played for between 2004 and 2007.

Orient were relegated from League 2 last season but controversial owner Francesco Becchetti sold the club in the summer and they are second in the National League with five wins from their first eight games.

A bumper crowd is expected at Stonebridge, where Fleet's average attendance so far is 1,665.
